Not just done with KC,done with the NFL

[Nzoner]

Yet another thread and I even went as far tonight that I gave away a very nice Chiefs coat and chiefs stocking cap at the party I was at.Also quit my fantasy football league and am renouncing the NFL as a whole.

Pro football is nothing more than pro wrestling only the stage is 50,000 times larger and the NFL just might get their Luck/Manning rematch and maybe even their Manning/Brady rematch.I ****ing hate to think this shit is rigged but at 51 I've seen much to much over the years and am done being made a fool of.

Oh and lastly this years pro bowl will be a fantasy draft,really,wake the **** up people we're watching another form of Hollywood where some of the actors are paid millions and some are just bit players.

The city of New Orleans got money from a Super Bowl that was played in Florida? I don't think so.

With a system rigged like that it's hard not to have a QB driven league high scoring league.

As an example, just go back and watch what happens to Hali when the Chiefs play one of these Golden Boy Quarterbacked teams. I'm surprised Hali has a voice box left after all the neck holds he suffers through week in and week out.

I watch all the games and have of course seen Hali be held, and not just against the golden boy QBs. But--is there really any proof that he is getting screwed more than any other dominant pass rusher? Maybe he is, I really have no idea. Seems like a prefect project for one of the obsessed conspiracy theorists out there.

Wait, you don't think New Orleans gained any extra money through taxes on merchandise, ticket sales, alcohol consumption from bars, jerseys, anything involved with the Saints? That city needed a big boost, financially and morally and that Superbowl win helped.

We can do this all day, but what you are telling me is that there has never been a play or five that you were sure was called wrong and it affected the game. Never one thing in the history of the NFL where you said, "That's the wrong call or non call, they shouldn't have won that game?

Another reason I enjoy watching college football is the camera doesn't zoom in immediately after a player makes a routine play, so he can get up and do a WWE scripted dance or 'signature move'.

You can offer lame theories that are easily shot full of holes all day? Have at it, freak.

Yeah, I'll bet they raked in the sales tax. New Orleans bars are notoriously empty when the Saints aren't in a Florida Super Bowl.

Yeah. I've seen wrong calls. They've affected games. I've seen wrong men elected president. They've wrecked economies and gotten people killed. I myself got less than a perfect score on the SAT and Harvard said no. Shit happens.

You again ignore things to make silly statements. You don't think New Orleans benefitted from the Saints winning the Superbowl? Wow, moving on... In a game where professionals are paid to make the correct call and not only that, they have multiple recordings of every play, there should be no mistakes. That's what replay is for. Refs shouldn't accidentally give a team five downs and that team win. Refs shouldn't miss an illegal formation on a field goal. They shouldn't call a touchdown when it was clearly not or vice versa, but they do all of the ****ing time and people ignore it and say dumb shit like "shit happens."

No, it doesn't. It was meant to happen for whatever reason gambling, building stadiums, whatever. The league is fixed not matter how you want to slice it.

I'm going to bed man. Please feel how you want, and I'll do the same. If you type something after I leave, we can keep it going tomorrow. Peace

There are 7 officials on thie field. There are 22 players capable of an act that would warrant a flag. The average play lasts what, 6 seconds?

And you think the only explanation for incorrect calls, or calls you consider incorrect, is a secret conspiracy to rig the matches??

I mean, seriously?

That is a very different question than, "Was it called incorrectly ON PURPOSE, by orders from the NFL?"
